Thanks so much for simply having a channel!! I have an 11 year old son who was diagnosed with RP at the age of 5 and at his 2020 semi annual appt they confirmed that he is now legally blind. Your videos are such an inspiration to our family!

Cayla, seriously please don't let the haters bother you. You know what you're doing and you're too smart to even acknowledge they even exist. To even reference them gives them a win in their eyes No pun intended. You're doing fine and as old as I am I still learned a couple things I didn't know from your video. Thanks for the help.

Hey Cayla! I have been watching your videos for about a year. You are so inspiring! You have overcome a lot of adversity. And even got a masters degree! You should be so proud of yourself at all your accomplishments! 😊

Awesome video! I am a blind youTuber as well. I don’t comment very much but I’ve been following your channel for a while and think you make some awesome content.

One would think that with being able to Google anything and everything that less people would be asking how a blind person uses technology. While I still use low vision features a bit, I really prefer using VoiceOver now. I sometimes end up doing things faster with a screenreader than with magnification, so that's a huge reason why I like VO more.

Hi, Cayla! I'm a User Experience Designer, working with software development teams so we can offer meaningful and relevant experiences to ALL users. Empathy is a key word at my everyday work and your videos and testimonies help me a lot with that! Keep up with the good work! Greetings from Brazil!

Hi 👋 I really enjoyed learning how to use jaws on the computer now I’m actually going to do it hands-on on my fiancé’s computer because I’m not used to using jaws but watching this really help me understand how other people like myself use technology so thank you

I think it's really interesting how a blind person uses the internet. I am a web developer and I want to create accessible websites. For your example it's neccessary to add features in web development, so people with disabilities can use the website like you showed.

This video is the answer of the frequently asked question about how we interact with our phone 😂😂😂 thank-you for this great video. This might help everyone including you, Ma'am to make your typing on iPhone more quicker. You can set your typing mode to direct touch or touch so that you won't have to double tap on each letter on your keyboard. I only use the standard typing when I'm at secured edit field like passwords. Keep safe, greetings from Philippines 💜

Good video! I finally forced myself to learn braille screen input on iPhone last year and now I don't know how I functioned without it. It makes typing so much faster.

Thanks for the reminder

Hi Cayla! My name is Miriam and I’m 14. I use JAWS on my PC and VoiceOver on my iPhone, too! I think VoiceOver is more accessible than Google voice on Android devices. For example, VoiceOver’s emojis descriptions are much clearer.

Thank you for this! I am going to refer people to this video when they ask how screen readers work! I always thought that the name “screen reader” was self-explanatory, but I guess not as people always ask me what it does and how it works😂 p.s. here is my likely predictable comment - i love the folklore sweatshirt! :)

Nice video my friend you got a new subscriber here. Even as a completely blind person I'm not particularly well versed in how other blind/VIP people use desktops. Any time I've tried to use one such as a ChromeBook last year I struggled so much that I eventually gave up. I'm much more comfortable with a smart phone these days :) looking forward to consuming future content.

Great video. I use both Jaws and NVDA.

you can also use braille screen input go to settings on your Iphone and go to accessibility then voice over then roader then you will see braille screen input. then just go to a app that you can type in then tern the roader in tell you hear braille screen input

great video really helpful have a great day till next time

That’s one of the questions I hate. How do you use technology when you’re blind? Come on people. It’s not that hard to think. We’re in 2021. With all the technology that we have, you don’t think that there’s something out there that blind people can use?

I believe the next video you should do you should be a video within itself! How blind people use social media. Because there are people out there who have a blind kid! Or whatever! Who want to know is social media accessible from my child! Just a suggestion.

Good video and description two toes up

Hlo mam I liked yr video I am a blind person from Nepal

Haha I recognized what you wrote about and I would love to hear how you are doing at your current job😍 I transitioned from a Windows built in magnifier to Magic with Jaws and now I interchangeably go from Jaws and Voiceover on my new MacBook with Zoom!!

Thank you Kayla! Can you show how to select, copy and paste using voiceover? Thank you so much!!! I have not been able to figure that one out yet!

Does the keyboard has a braille popout so u can know what keycap u are hitting??

I think MacBooks are awesome with voice-over I find it easier.

You did a good job introducing the screen reader. I hope sighted people learned something from you. I also learned a little bit about IPhone from your cideo. I use Androit and Talkback, so I don't know a lot about IPhone and Boiceover.

Hi lovely Cayla If you felt comfortable would you consider doing a video about your experiences with mental health during the pandemic? A lot of us might be feeling alone during this time so it would be nice to hear from other people with disabilities to. Sending love

Hey Kayla I just stop it upon your channel I came here from live accessible or Kerry because you guys did a lifestream and I also live with labours congenital I’m roses and I’m also quite losing my vision and it’s just so good to know that there are other LCA creators because our condition is so rare there’s not many creators out there so it’s so good to see you and know that you have a KZfaq channel I also have a podcast that will be coming out soon so I’m hoping we could talk on that

I love your videos

Alright this was insanely interesting, it is nice to see how technbology can make life easier!!!!

Thanks you made me feel better I know more than I thought I knew. The one thing that drove me nuts when I can see a bit was the screen on and the screen off which Apple has where you can accidentally shut your screen off if you can see a little bit then all of a sudden the screen goes blank and you don’t know where it went that might be something for you to mention in the future since most people even at the helpdesk‘s don’t know what they’re doing I went into the Apple store in the gurus didn’t know but the blind guy they had working there solve the problem in two seconds and laughed. The other thing is voice to text Apple really needs to up step their level of this sometimes it prints and says absolute crazy and vulgar things since vulgar words are still in the system. The IT department at work has a copy of some of my more famous comments. But again another fantastic video keep up the good work I’ll see you again real soon

Hey Cayla don't let bullies get you down, take it from me, I been cyberbullied, and even cyberstalked, but I don't let them get to me, don't give up. :) I use magnification and Narrator.

Great video! I also can't stand when people say well how are you making this comment if you can't see? So I have a video called making comments on youtube and another one where I show people how I use Jaws and go on the internet.

Please upload your video two or three days please please please I am from India and I tell you all the best you work very well

I accidently stumbled upon one of your videos and started exploring your channel. I'm so glad to found you and want to appreciate you for your great content. I know it's Hard but keep going girl. I really want to chat with you. Can you tell me your Facebook handle. Lots of love from an Indian girl

When is your next video, I am missing your videos!

Hi Cayla, thanks because i thought this problem just in Turkey, i mean, if you blind how to write this command.

I know i really need to start using talk back but i checked it out and tried the tutorials and it honestly seemed too complicaed and annoying lol. I can see enough to use magnification on my PC but using it on a small smart phone screen isnt the best. I really hope they improve that voice on that software you use. Cuz dear lord i would lose my mind using that. lol

I was just curious, but did you know that you can change VoiceOver's voice? I think you have it set to Samantha default, but there is a Samantha enhanced voice as well. There are many other voices you can choose, too. Just go to settings, then accessibility, then VoiceOver, then speech, and it should say voice, Samantha default as one of the options. Double tap that, and you should be given a list of voices.❤️

Hello cayla. Is it works on android?

Yes love this the part about the phone and use being able to see the at I have had eye drs say that it’s so annoying !

Thank you for this video. I have cone rod dystrophy. Was just at the ophthalmologists and vision is now 20/600 ,20 vision field. Im grateful to be able to see this good but it's getting bad . So I'm completely scared by new tech. . Do they make voice over in other voices? The computer voice causes me to have headaches.

I know this probably might be too dangerous! But it’s to educate the cited people! Instead of assuming! That you can see! Because you’re looking down at your phone! You should consider putting your email in the description! So that if cited people they have questions if they have a blind child or child who’s going blind! They can email you and ask you the question directly and see what I’m trying to say?

you shouldn't have to explain yourself to people about your eyesight. their a many levels of blindness. I've just found you from The Live Accessible channel that was an interesting presentation or lesson you have just given

That's great that you know how to not make it with tiara technology keep up the good work

Who can teach me?! I'm newly blind and no help or support what so ever
